    Truck driver charged in Illinois for opening fire on another semi on I-294
    Another hothead who’s going to be chilled out for awhile in Illinois. Illinois State Polce used I-Pass toll data to locate his position in relation to where the shooting occurred (it happened on the TriState Tollway). When they caught up with the driver he confessed!
    Remember drivers, the tollways in Illinois are under 24/7/365(366 on leap years) round the clock surveillance! And if you’re up to no good,they will catch you!

    Ayup i think @D.Tibbitt will agree with me that morons like THIS one need to be taken out back and put down like a rabid dog. They give all us responsible gun owners a bad name. And this is a pretty black and white case.

    He should have thrown a soda bottle or a can of soup if he was so mad.

    Dont underestimate just how much damage they can do. Had a truck drop a cooler off the back and had a can of soda bounce up into my old silverados grill and punch all the way through the radator about 6 years back. If it can do that at 40mph one of those at 60 or 70 through a windshield can kill someone as surely as a brick.

    A buddy of mine threw a 20oz Coke bottle out the window of his hotshot rig and shattered the windshield of the AH tailgater who refused to dim his brights.
